    stu, I just read your post quoting me about my reference to harshness. You cut off the important part there. Calling someone a "pompous fool" for their beliefs is what I consider to be harsh. I don't want to point fingers directly so I said non-believers. I recognize all sides are guilty of...

    Therein lies the entire crux of the matter daniel. You don't know with your heart. You are not alone though. I know others who, like you, know with their minds but not with there hearts. God, the Love of God, Obedience to God, Faith in God... all are not found in the mind. They are found in...

    I agree grumpy...I mean daniel ( a great Biblical name) that there is only one truth. I did not say there wasn't. I did say that I believe that other people feel just as strongly about what they know to be true as I do. There is a big difference between what I said and what you are saying I...

    And you called yourself a pagan? That was fantastic. I should be asking you my questions matt.!!! LOL. Okay, so any other questions I can answer for you? Sheesh! I send you chopsticks, you send back a concerto. :) What is really on your mind? And btw, what movie is your signature...

    matt, I wish I knew the answer for sure that would clear it up about will and want. I am trying to think how you might be looking at it that raises that question.... maybe I am on the right track with this thought. You will know immediately whether I am or not. The Lord's will and want is...

    Oh yeah, on the prayer thing... I hope that by being obedient to God's Word in the Bible, that my will is His Will. So when I pray, I am praying for His continued Grace, His protection, His wisdom. I pray for the health of my family. I pray for wise trading decisions. If I ask for something in...

    matt, I know what you are saying when you say - paraphrased - "what about the koran"? I agree with you. I ask myself that same question because I do not think these people are foolng themselves. I believe they believe as completely in their Koran as I do the Word, eg., Bible. Believe me it is...

    Humility rules. Service rules. Faith... rules. One can awaken at 6am each morning...religiously. Or brush your teeth three times a day... religiously. Or trade the same way every time... religiously. The term "religion" is useless except to define a doctrine of belief and practice. More...

    Profits, religion and politics

    Wow, I am very hesitant to post here - I have some thoughts and my beliefs, but the fury of this thread and the nature of the disharmony here is incredible. To go back and forth in black and white print puts one at a disadvantage not found in a face-to-face discussion. When you cannot see the...

    SWJ, Thanks for your reply. I find a "go look it up for yourself" type reply to be inappropriate from a long timer to a newbie. I'm sure dottom has helped you. I don't deny that he knows his stuff or has very good posts. I have read many of them. I just think anything I can do to help another...

    This reply you find helpful? Well my mistake then. How dull of me. There is so much fruitful knowledge presented that I guess I didn't see it for its worth the first time through. But now... yes now... it is abundantly clear just how helpful your reply was. "for the perfect avoidance of...

    The least of my concerns in this world is making friends. That has never been and never will be a problem. And your second paragraph is exactly why I called you out. I don't expect you to admit you weren't at your best. I just want you to know that it didn't go unnoticed. Hey, maybe I'm...

    This sounds like a "when to take a profit" question to me versus a general discussion of ONEIL. What do you think trend_guy? Maybe I'm missing something in the above quote that you are seeing. :)

    Did I use the word "sharing?" I didn't use the word sharing. Hey did somebody put the word "sharing" into one of my posts and it is only able to be read on your screen? I don't even have to look back for that one because I know I didn't u the word "sharing." And notice the continued use of...

    William Oneil - CANSLIM

    Calibertrader, Interesting problem. You have micro tactics down, but not macro. Which means your micro tactics cannot be applied to the macro environment. Conversely, the very same methods I use for long term I also use for short term. So I guess the bottom line is I am all that and the whole...

    Wrong about the use of 'maybe.' Each one stood on its own. Not a linear progression. Offering three separate possibilities nullified any single conclusion - which was the intent.... because I truly don't know why someone would be obviously unwilling to help. But you are right, the post was...

    Not saying never helpful. Just saying unwilling to help. Not saying chronically. Just don't understand acutely. The same number of keystrokes used to make both replies could have been used to be helpful in the first reply. Interesting that you took my reply personally though. It's sort of...

    Sunday morning and the Christmas season - a day for worship and a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus... for those who are inclined to do so. I will never understand an unwillingness to help. Maybe it's from the path to success one had to travel. Maybe it is based in the attitude that "I...

    Hey Longshot, I'll use the term parabolic move because I'm sure you know it, but for any up move that takes off like a rocket I draw a trendline just below the lows that approximates the slope of the move, but not quite as steep. Pretty close though. When price crosses that trendline either...

    anatomy of a backtest report

    Along that same line, the confidence required to pull the trigger after 9 straight losers can be gained from having backtested a strategy and reviewed the results thoroughly enough to know that it will work. I agree with your point however. :)
